WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY: Cutting drive sprockets with WATER and fabricating IDLER WHEEL stations!

[@BobCooper-sl6vo]

The mechanical aptitude, talent and ability displayed by these guys, to find "out of left field" solutions for the most difficult of problems, continues to amaze me with every new video. What a great crew, who look to thoroughly enjoy what they are doing every day of the week. 😀😁🤣😇

[@ricksmith4736]

People who can fabricate like these fellows can will rule the world someday......

[@roycarter6235]

The skillset of the blokes in that workshop leaves me in awe.

[@timwerner7771]

Darryl's tolerances are so tight the simple heat from welding can tighten or loosen the fit of the axle! Amazing accuracy!

[@jimmcfee3488]

This is always an issue with pins and bushes, in an industrial situation they would be machined to allow for line boring after welding has been completed BUT this is a whole different ball game.

[@1chish]

These are the sort of films that should used at schools to enthuse young people about why engineering is needed and the satisfaction you get from being part of it. I started my engineering apprenticeship aged 16 in the '60 in the UK and while I had to go to Germany to work for a few years what I learned then is still with me now and used in my car restoration projects. Love the laid back understated comments. 'A bit of time' describes months of work showing the Aussies even outdo us Brits on that!

[@RobertBailey-y3h]

The water cutter sequence was a thing of beauty. Besides, you lads should be proud of the quality of your machining and craftsmanship.--Bob Bailey in Maine, USA

[@paulday-lh5mx]

Oh come on! All we have time for! I could watch another 2hrs of this. Just so fascinating to watch the machine work and test fitting come together. So much work goes Into your restorations. Thank you for this video and hopefully another video on Friday, which will get me through the weekend until next Wednesday. Remember workshop Wednesdsy should be Monday to Friday.

[@johnrstubbs]

These blokes should be running the country. They can fix anything! Absolutely brilliant.

[@jimsweeney]

Always fascinating to watch - but always too short! Half an hour would be excellent.

This made my Wednesday. Little by little a Panzer I is reborn. Amazing.

[@marty_debiru]

It is incredible how 0,001 mm will throw off the allignment in this huge and crude machine. It really shows the amazing engineering of it

[@GERntleMAN]

Now that is actually very precise, nice! Many people don't know how easily things go out of alignment by fitting them where they are supposed to be, welding them, having weight in them. That is doing German engineering an honour, these guys are great!

[@assessor1276]

Nice work gents! You know, Kurtis at Cutting Edge Engineering Aus. could line bore those housings post welding and they’d be dead-nuts.

[@jimsweeney]

Apart from issues of cost, it would mean transporting the tank hull to and from Kurtis' workshop. But yes, he'd be able to make the restorers' jobs easier.

[@sniperfi4532]

@@jimsweeneyI’m sure Kurtis would trade some dead nuts line bores for a chance drift around in a tank or two.

[@seapy2398]

Given that restoring and aligning worn/rusty drive shaft exit ports in tank hulls seems a fairly common occurrence perhaps you could knock up a long reamer or hone that would align the housing centres and make the job easier? No great cost involved and keeps it 'in house'. I was going to suggest Kurtis from CEE but take the point regards cost, you need to keep as much as possible 'in house' What I am suggesting is very low tech and simple to do, might even be quicker (and more accurate) that all the faffing about trying to correct weld distortion. Really good job non the less.

[@stephenyoud6125]

Outstanding work Daryl and Jesse. Not bad work for a Carpenter !!

[@samrodian919]

@asserssor1276 I was thinking the exact same thing about Kurtis doing it for them lol Daryl has made a pretty good job of designing and making all the parts, for a carpenter that is lol

[@timwerner7771]

LOve Daz with the idler wheel axles..."There's a lot of filing and muckin' around to do yet" HA! love this!

[@pvtmadmike]

I love all the videos you post, if I can make a suggestion as a H&R instructor. I would suggest the next time you lift the Hull to flip it etc. pad your sharp corners. that way your continuous slings will have a less chance of cutting and causing them to lose their lifting ability, Once they are damaged you need to dispose of them. Safety first we all want to go home at the end of the day. I am also a museum volunteer here in Canada . and I always like to remind my friends at the museum. to do the same. Keep up the good work I can't wait to see the finished product.

[@snr9312]

Hey Guys I love your channel probably because i am an historian and tank lover but I just thought I would tell you that have a nice day

Do the boys ever stop and think how many generations are going to marvel at your amazing work. They may never know your name but it has to make everyone around you proud as can be. Kurt that goes for you also my friend, thanks for documenting all of this great work. One other thing thanks to whom ever is cutting the checks. Can’t wait til next week.

[@andrewsteele7663]

Every Wednesday I wait for the next episode of Workshop Wednesday, and if you have read my comments, you know I love it. But your channel is the only one that I will rewatch episodes. They are not just entertaining, they are riveting. I am truly amazed how Daryl, Jess, and the team, work through problems and just do what they do so well. Even Kurt, organic face warmer aside, does an amazing job of asking the right questions for me, as I sit here in my office just mesmerized. I am planning a visit in the near future, and I am so so looking forward to that day. Thank you so much.

With the Australian Armour and Artillery meusem as I am massive fan of Armour!!!

[@depleteduraniumcowboy3516]

Sup tank nerds? It's DUC again. What a pleasure it is to watch such masters of their craft work. (Including the video editor.) Was the water cutting really sped up 100 times? Especially hats off to Daz, who just designed a track tensioner that could be built in house. Amazing stuff, I could and have, watched Workshop Wednesdays for hours. As others have noticed when the music comes on I am "Nooooooooo!" but at least it lets us down easy. Already looking forward to next Wednesday.

Not enough Kurt! More footage please! Daryl you have made a bloody good job of those parts and they're designing, considering you're not trained in engineering but a carpenter. I too was trained in what a guy called John here in the UK who has a KZbin channel called Doubleboost calls woodworking " Woodbutchery" lol but now exclusively work on my lathe /milling combination machine.
